I looked around the infirmary to see the nurse as always, Madam Pomfrey. She wore garments that looked like they were from the 1700s. I always thought she was to, I should say, picky or mean. She stared at me and said finally.

I need to check your ribs, they should be fully grown and healthy. You have been here for over months.

She said as she checked my ribs. She pounded on them to find them solid.

Okay Scarlet, you may go. Be more careful on the quidditch pitch!

Madam Pomfrey screeched as I walked out of the infirmary. It was great to be out of the place. The hospital smell changed to delightful lavender. I walked to the Great Hall to see smiles upon smiles. I sat next to Isobel at the table as she drank pumpkin juice. I looked at the food in front of me and dug in. Isobel hadnt noticed me until she asked for more juice. She forgot she had magic.

Oh! Scarlet! Your back! Are you better?

She asked as she refilled her juice. She loved pumpkin juice. Isobel stared until I answered.

Yeah Isobel! Im good! How have you been? I havent seen you in some time.

I ate my eggs and sausages. The food they gave at the infirmary changed my view on food. I could feel the May breeze as it came through the windows.

Ive been good, Im failing Charms though. But Im really good at Divination!

I didnt like divination much, though Isobel smiled at the thought.

I heard you got an O on everything! Thats crazy!

Isobel smiled as we both walked to Charms. Professor Flitwick didnt like Isobel much, since she was failing. I sat next to Isobel as Pansy and Draco sat apart. Cho Chang moved a few desks so she could be farther away from Draco. I understood her.

It isnt much, cant believe youre surprised!

I knew all what was happening in Charms, though it was weird to be next to Isobel. I wasnt always with Isobel. Isobel felt like an outsider even, she just wasnt in the picture.

" You missed all testing! Well, it wouldn't affect you really."

We walked down the hall to Transfiguration when my father stopped me.

Scarlet, can I see you in my office?

He spoke formally as he walked in front of me. His cloak draped over his back as he walked, the cloth getting more worn than ever. I scuttled behind him as we reached his office. We reached his office and he showed me a piece of paper in a flash. It was my mothers will.

Your mother left you something.

He said with a sad frown. He didnt like to talk about mothers death.

I grabbed the paper from his hand and read.

To my beautiful daughter Scarlet,

I have left you my wand and my necklace. My father gifted it to me and I would cherish it as you would. I love you Scarlet.

" Dad, where is her wand?"

He looked to his side and grabbed a wooden box. I opened it to find a wand inside. It wasn't to big or to small, it was perfect. I wielded it, and of course it didn't work.

' I will cherish this until the end, I won't disapoint you mother.'

I thought as my father handed me her necklace. It was turqoise. With large beads and small beads with lining. It was beautiful.
